Matteuccia struthiopteris | Also known as: Ostrich-feather fern, Shuttlecock fern | Rating: votes| Print / Pdf
There’s no need to get in a flap when it comes to putting together a garden design. Matteuccia struthiopteris or ostrich fern is a stunning addition that will have all eyes on it thanks to the fantastic rich green fronds that resemble ostrich feathers. These fronds surround smaller brown fronds, which are fertile. Ostrich fern likes partially shaded and fully shaded areas and does well in moist and well-drained loamy, clay or sandy soil. Ostrich fern tolerates wet areas, making this a beautiful option for growing at the side of a pond or stream. This fern creates a lush and mysterious woodland garden and will have people flocking to beds and borders within a cottage garden.
